See text Listriodon is an extinct genus of pig-like animals that lived in Eurasia during the Miocene.

This was the case because unlike ruminants (and much like perissodactyls), pigs lack a complex four-chambered stomach and therefore had to rely on their teeth to break down grasses and herbs.

[2] Many species of Listriodon have been named over the years, to the point that the genus became a wastebasket taxon.

Over the years, many species have been moved into new genera, such as Kubanochoerus, Bunolistriodon[3] and Lopholistriodon.

[4] Prothero (2021) lists four valid species:[5] Multiproxy isotopic analysis of the tooth enamel of L. splendens consisting of 87Sr/86Sr, δ18OCO3, and δ13C suggests that although it was primarily a browser, it consumed significant quantities of fruit and at times also fed on grass.
